Pros

-Interesting work, great people -Flexible Hours -Health Care -401K -Deferred Comp -Health Reimbursement Good basic package but the long-term growth and support of strong employees is lacking, thus the low ratings.

Cons

I'd likely still be working here but I felt there was no opportunity for growth both personally and economically. I left and saw a 35% pay increase (including stock and bonus)! Salaries are not assessed and kept within current market rates and opportunities for promotion within are greatly lacking. In addition, I find the Executives were not open to diversity and promoting within. The company is certainly aware of this due to lawsuits from previous employees (who often won). If you're offered a role here, be sure to negotiate up-front for strong compensation ( including bonus, deferred comp, flexible schedules, etc) because once you're hired, they'll be NO reviews, assessments or raises. 4 years and I never had a Performance review....even after requesting it!

Pros

Decent pay, average benefits, some autonomy to get things done

Cons

The entire leadership group that I was hired under was gone within 18 months and replaced but far worse examples. Micro-managing and then threatening corrective action plans as a means to force out those who they didn't like or earned too much. From a technology perspective, the storage products are average and inline with competition, but with far fewer reps in the field and no real marketing or inside sales to speak of, Hitachi Vantara is largely irrelevant in the Storage industry now.
